What Evil Lay Dormant -

Covered in red, before my eyes betrayed to see

Another terror, death laden mirage

Of feigned sanctity

A heaven defunct now held by flame

Torn to pieces, in ruin, the heavens gate

War devours, this ravaged land

Decimated by secret plans

Apocalyptic scenes occur

While flames erupt from below

Deploring this human depravity

Fading hope in future years

We watch the towers crumble

As dust consumes us all

Ideals of old held hope for some

But mankind’s nature surfaced

What evil lay dormant

Forgotten, banished for centuries

Suppressed by radical psychology

Forced into a corner

With nothing but our minds

Reaching out to no one

Blindly stumbling on

Lifeless, consumed

A future bleak a time foretells

Ageless empires raised to ash

As dust consumes us all

The last of us, engraved into the stone

Left behind our fortunes

Now build with sticks and stones

Staring into a void of silence

The unknown awaits our end

Ascending towards the horizon

Trusting that we’ll create again

We gaze into the fire, but nothing there to see

For all we see is the darkness, of our humanity

The opportunity to start again

Is only a day away

The heavens above have foretold

A new beginning for us all

Devoid of silence

This sea of naught

Mankind’s empires crumble

Agelessness undone

The last of us engraved into the stone

Left behind our fortunes

Now leave behind this world

Staring into a void of silence

The unknown awaits our end

Ascending towards the horizon

Trusting that we’ll create again

We gaze into the fire, but nothing there to see

For all we see is the darkness, of our humanity

Abandon our inheritance

And descend to the unknown

Watch the fire

Consume all

Embrace death

After-life
